题目:
You are given two jugs with capacities x and y litres. There is an infinite amount of water supply available. You need to determine whether it is possible to measure exactly z litres using these two jugs.
If z liters of water is measurable, you must have z liters of water contained within one or both buckets by the end.
Operations allowed:
- Fill any of the jugs completely with water.
- Empty any of the jugs.
- Pour water from one jug into another till the other jug is completely full or the first jug itself is empty.
Example 1: (From the famous "Die Hard" example)
Input: x = 3, y = 5, z = 4 Output: True
Example 2:
Input: x = 2, y = 6, z = 5 Output: False
思路:
这是一道数学题目(不过顺便也考查了一下求最大公约数的辗转相除法^_^),具体解释在youtube上面可以看到: "Die Hard" example,我自己也没明白具体原理。不过总体来讲要用x升和y升大小的两个桶精确量出z升水,其充要条件是:1)z必须小于等于(x + y)(否则装不下);2)z必须可以除尽x和y的最大公约数。其中条件1)显而易见;但是条件2)是为什么呢?求解释。
代码:
class Solution {
public:
bool canMeasureWater(int x, int y, int z) {
if(z > x + y) {
return false;
}
return z == 0 ? true : z % gcd(x, y) == 0;
}
private:
int gcd(int x, int y) {
return y == 0 ? x : gcd(y, x % y);
}
};
